Scenic Everest Flight

Admire the Giants of the Himalaya from a Close Perspective!

1-hour Flight
Kathmandu

From Kathmandu, take a spectacular one-hour mountain flight for views of a Himalayan panorama ranging from Kanchenjunga (28,208') in the east to Annapurna I and Dhaulagiri in the west. The highlight is a marvelous view of the pyramid-shaped summit of Mt. Everest, the world’s highest peak at 29,028 feet. Flights are typically aboard an 18- to 36-passenger pressurized aircraft. Mornings only (we recommend booking it for the morning of your last full day in Kathmandu).
